The Good Times..they Are a Comin'

Recommended Posts

Quite recently there was a very informative piece by Marc Andreesen, the founder of Netscape on the increasing dominance of software - Why Software Is Eating The World . Its a stunning article . And then Steve Jobs and Dennis Richie depart.

 

It is the time of the Tea Party folks and even grimmer Occupy Wall Street and these techie giants seem to have departed when everything around looks so bleak, when they were most needed. But take a look at it from another perspective and things are no longer bleak. The foundation these and other techie giants laid, opens up a whole new world.This is an interview with Carlota Perez, an economist working in the area of Technology among other things on the emerging new opportunities.

A very interesting interview.

 

A world of new opportunities, in every sphere is emerging. Even trading, though it is not explicitly stated in the interview below. My query is : In trading what are the contours of the new opportunities?

Am surprised that there was no response whatsoever on I consider and epochal interview. Maybe I was going a bit too ahead and have introduced it by first asking people to see this presentation first:

 

THE DIRECTION OF INNOVATION AFTER THE FINANCIAL COLLAPSE, ICT for green growth and global development .

 

My question still remains the same. What are the ramifications on us traders?

..and the ramification is just this..along with the Tea Party and Occupy Wall Street revolutions, there is also a full fledged Technological revolution on, with ramifications on everyone everywhere. Traders incuded, even for us in the emerging economies.

 

But on this site we are primarily interested in what happens to traders. Occupy Wall Street could have negative ramifications for traders across the world. Can it be offset by the positive spin-offs from the emerging Technological Revolution? I think so and in these ways:

 

1. The acceleration of technological change will increase volatility of cash flows to companies. Volatile cash flows imply volatile prices for the foreseeable future. The only way of addressing this, or actually seizing the opportunity emerging from this through sophisticated automatic trading systems - the algos. Which are the Algos?

 

2. Trading opportunities are now global. I trade the Indian Nifty Futures. The largest trading in Single Stock Futures happen in the National Stock Exchange of India. If ever there was a ban on trading in any country you could trade elsewhere quite easily. Which are the Exchanges? What instruments?

 

3. The emergence of the virtual trading organisation (now I will expect people to inquire about the stuff that I am smoking now :doh: ). The technological base has been set for thr re-emergence of the small artisan like trading set-ups, based on technology. This has happened in the pharmaceutical sector where the majority of the innovations actually emerges from the smaller companies. Methins we are on the verge of seeing something similar happen in trading.

 

Au revoir,

Thank you for sharing the interview.

 

Specifically......what are the ramifications on us as traders. It certainly opened up my perspective as to what to consider in looking ahead at what future markets to trade. In the early 90's I was exposed to the future architecture of the Internet would be....and cloud computing was the last "block" to be laid. The interviewee, suggests we are now moving into the implemention state of this new technology.....and what it all has to offer. So, when considering future markets to trade...this will certainly be one of my considerations.

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful. Remember, sometimes what you throw in the garbage is something that someone wishes ever to have.” – ElZee, Quora   Profits from free accurate cryptos signals: https://www.predictmag.com/
